Practical tips for growing native plants to protect the birds and pollinators you love. FREE. RSVP required. Donations accepted at the door.
About this Event

Carol Decker, former Director of Mass Audubon’s Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary and Founding Member of West Newbury Wild and Native, will talk about the native plants you can grow in your own yard to support birds, pollinators, and the whole web of life.

Native plants do not need fertilizers and require far less water than ornamentals. Planting them is a win-win for you and for nature.

Learn practical information about:

Cultivars vs natives

And much more about bringing nature back to your yard for the benefit of wildlife and you!
